Amy Robach returns to Instagram nine months after a scandalous affair with TJ Holmes rocked their TV careers
Amy Robach has returned to Instagram for nine months after deactivating it due to her scandalous affair with her ABC colleague TJ Holmes, which was revealed exclusively by DailyMail.com.
The 50-year-old journalist – who is in talks to join a new network – took to the platform on Monday to share a single black and white photo of two sets of limbs.
The two people in the photo — believed to be she and Holmes, 46 — wore matching Nike running sneakers as they sat on a porch.
The post, shared with her 588,000 followers, was captioned: “#nycmarathon2023.”
Amy added two runner emojis: a black man and a woman with long, yellow hair.
She is back! Amy Robach has returned to Instagram for nine months after deactivating it over her scandalous fling with her ABC coworker TJ Holmes.

Comments on the post are disabled and it is Robach’s first post since November 24, 2022.
One of the people in the snapshot wore light-colored camo leggings, while the other wore black leggings.
It’s no secret that the two former anchors bonded over their love of hitting the pavement as runners.
Earlier this year they competed in the New York City Half Marathon and last year they ran the 2022 NYC Marathon.
The social media upload comes months after the duo quit their jobs at ABC following an internal investigation into their relationship.
“After several productive conversations with Amy and TJ about various options, we all agreed that it’s best for everyone to continue at ABC News.
“We recognize their talent and dedication over the years and are grateful for their contributions,” a network representative said in a February 2023 statement.
Prior to the layoff, the duo had been taken off the air while their employer decided how to handle their bombshell relationship.

In July, DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that Robach is in talks to close a million-dollar deal with NewsNation.
The potential hire has ruffled the feathers of her future colleagues, who worry the network will be seen as a “dumping ground” for disgraced anchors.
“First Chris Stirewalt, then Chris Cuomo, and now Amy!” an employee told DailyMail.com. “It hurts our reputation.”
The source added: “It seems we’re a mess for people who can’t get bigger and better jobs elsewhere.”
